Actually I want to put two static routes permanently. How do I do this? I tried
ifconfig hdlc0 blah blah and it works fine for the first route. When I do the
second route using ifconfig hdlc0 blah2 blah2 then it will just overwrite the first
hdlc route.
Again I already added the routes in /etc/sysconfig/static-routes. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

OOoooppssss.....The line with OSPF is not yet configured but we are able to use the
proxy server temporarily. Is it fair to have a download speed of not less than
9kbps as displayed by the browser indicator?
